There are only 200 of these made this years, so watch out or they'll go as fast as the frame is intended to travel!! |
| FRAME | Now this is a highlight. It is made from Easton Elite Ultralight 7005 aluminium for incredible lightweight. This is strengthened by double butting which strategically adds weight only to areas which are likely to experience stress. | SUSPENSION | An incredibly light Manitou Mars is used which is air sprung using Manitou's Air Response System. | DRIVETRAIN | Shimano XT is used for the front and rear derailleurs aswell as shifters on the E6. The XT rear derailleur reduces friction using fluorine coated pivot pins to provide a lighter shifting action. XT STi has two ball bearing units to provide precision. Raceface Enduro cranks are another highlight. | BRAKING | The brakes on the E6 are Avid Single Digit 5 which use Force Vector Alignment to direct more energy at the rim to give more dependable and reliable braking performance. | WHEELS AND TYRES | Hope XC hubs are used which allows for the easy potential later upgrade to disc brakes. These are built onto WTB Speedmaster rim. Continental Explorer tyres are used with Kevlar bead. | | The E6 is a limited edition bike, only 200 are being made, so it will go as fast as it's light weight suggests |
